Piero Coppo founded the winery in 1892 in the town of Canelli, in Piedmont, setting himself as a top producer of Moscato. Piero was succeeded by his son Luigi, who expanded the company to include other classic still and sparkling wines from Piedmont, made with the native varietals of the area. Luigi also provided his winery with the facilities and equipment needed to compete in the difficult, but growing, post-war market.
Today, Piero's four grandsons manage the company, successfully integrating new styles with traditional viticulture. Just after the loss of their father Luigi in 1984, the brothers decided to focus on Barbera, releasing their own interpretation of this local grape. The prestigious Pomorosso Barbera D'Asti was born, emerging as the model of the “modern style” Barbera, aged in oak and with unmistakable personality. Barbera, a truly native varietal, soon became the pride of the entire region and today finally receives its due recognition. The four brothers Piero, Gianni, Paolo, and Roberto have set an ambitious goal: to resurrect the traditional red varietals from the Asti region, and to produce serious white wines with aging potential. Massimiliano, son of Piero (the founder’s grandson) is the first member of the fourth generation of Coppos to enter the family business. This is a new generation of winegrowers with a new way of viewing agriculture. They produce classic Piedmontese wines, with the dedication and the attention to detail required to craft ultra-premium wines. Considered the "Barbera specialists” worldwide, they also produce an outstanding Moscato d’Asti and an excellent Gavi.
